Short film, "Game Over," taps into childhood nightmares

     Classics

Rameo Mazzei's short film, "Game Over," is not only entertaining, but also takes the prize for portraying the angriest Pac-Man ever. He's angrier than Ms. Pac-Man is a dirty slut.

The film follows the adventures of a man who gets trapped inside of a video game and must fight his way out. With homages to Pac-Man, Street Fighter, and Super Mario Bros., it's as if Mazzei has tapped into my psyche and ripped my childhood nightmares straight from my head.

I liked the 80's music, and also the visual of his sprite animations (although he looks pretty dumb when you pay attention to it).

Gotta make some animations like that of my own =D

Not too keen on the GRAW style of that concept art - they look more like special forces soldiers.

(although in and of itself its pretty cool)

Eh, mildly entertaining at best. Better than anything I could do so I don't have room to complain.

When his game shut off I actually felt sorry for him.
